six weeks, depending on the condition of the skin and the patient’s lifestyle.<br />

‘In terms of how long results last, it really depends on different factors. Initial<br />

results will usually appear at three to four weeks and can last a couple of years<br />

with some maintenenace top-up treatments,” says Dr Williamson.<br />

What can Regen PRP treat?<br />

A treatment with seemingly endless areas for application, Regen PRP calls upon<br />

the body’s natural processes to rejuvenate the skin. From improving skin laxity<br />

and tone in the face, neck and décolletage to reducing the appearance of stretch<br />

marks on the abdomen or thighs, Regen PRP offers an all-encompassing antiageing<br />

treatment.<br />

‘I use PRP for improving the texture of ageing skin, especially around the<br />

eyelids, neck and décolletage. It will give a degree of skin tightening as well but<br />

not to the extent of dedicated skin tightening procedures such as radiofrequencybased<br />

treatments. I also use PRP for stretch marks, acne and other scarring and<br />

in combination with non-surgical vaginal treatments for stress incontinence and<br />

tightening,’ says Dr Hooi.<br />

Dr Williamson emphasises that almost anyone can benefit from PRP. ‘It really<br />

does have endless possibilities – not only can it be used for skin rejuvenation<br />

treatments but it can also be used for hair loss, enhanced sexual satisfaction,<br />

osteoarthritis and sporting injuries. Personally, I have recently had my knee<br />

injected with PRP and it has reduced joint pain caused by inflammation.’<br />
